Then some jump and become famous, but odds are stacked against it.


Well, that's an unexpected angle to the story, CT. I had no idea that turning progressively "harder" could actually end a model's career. Learn something new every day.

Oh and another thing I don't quite understand with American girls, is having a big booty and how women with huge butts are more favored. I have to say, its not my thing at all.


Tattoos don't bother me half as much as those so-called "enhanced" breasts. You see them mostly in American models and I despise them. Any set or video that features enhanced automatically will get a one out of five or even ten from me, no matter how pretty the face or rest of the figure may be.

Very hard at times to grow up in a polite country where we respected our elders, and held doors open and said please and thank you. Thats why I like my adult material especially the intimate stuff and stripping why rare, gives a soft sexy look that is slowly being taken over by POV shots of labias for 20 minutes no face not body just pussy play . Oh well guess I have said enough on this.


Can't argue with that statement, CT!

Some good stuff has occured but seems we are making problems where there are none. Guns, booze and porn have been around hundreds of years together living fine. Then everyone wants to regulate and criminalize what good people do. And not stop the bad people.

The people whom deal in human trafficking,sell and use drugs and run illegal arms, all occur with little sins of ending. And laws never stop the bad guys.

Kinda like in South Cal, the who condom thing, whose business is it ? Its not the governments right to pry into my life.

PS I brought the booze thing as they are now considering changing regulations on alcohol consumption, and also how you protest against law makers is in the lawmaker hands as we speak. As I have said you regulate one Right, and you open the flood gates. I do doubt porn will be open as it is. just too much going on to leave it out of the playing field,


I think one of the big reasons why Government tends to intervene more than in previous decades is because our society has turned angry, confrontational, lawless (look at all the cases of road rage, mass shootings, bullying (cyber- and otherwise). The reason? Who knows? Some blame the Internet and applications (phones etc.) that allow you to be your nasty self anonymously and the fact that you are no longer interacting with your fellow man in person.

Is it any wonder (to touch upon one of your favorite subjects) that in the light of all those senseless mass killings in movie theaters, schools etc., governments are tempted to impose stricter controls? And, of course, Governments being governments they do tend to get carried away with their righteous causes. Good thing we get to vote every 4 (in your case), 5 years.

I think you hit the nail right on the head, FL, because I did the same thing:

"What did I ever see in HER? Delete!" and that particular model was slumbering in a folder called "Favorites!"

We as citizens of any country need to not ever allow our governments to remove rights.

If we continue to allow any rights removed then we deserve whats left. I see a day when Porn will outlawed and ISP fined for allowing it if we do not say no to allowing the governments to strip our rights, EVEN if you do not agree with the right allowing it sets precedence to go hog wild.

Our freedom of speech could be next possibly and my post would be banned LOLOL.



We had a Prime Minister in Canada (Pierre Elliot Trudeau) some time ago who stated quite firmly: "The State has no business in the bedrooms of a nation!" No one, since then, has tried (at least overtly) to contradict him. Sure hope it stays this way. And it's good to see you again!

When I was saturated with popups it wasn't just porn. The popups wanted me to buy anything from TV's to toilet paper or the "You're the Lucky Winner".


Oh yeah!! The "lucky winner" is huge at the moment. It seems every time I open an old familiar site I am a lucky winner if only I complete a survey!!! Now if only someone could tell me how to turn the darn things off. It never happened with Windows 7.

... but I find that most models in my formerly favorite softcore sites (Anilos, All Over 30, ATK Aunt Judy, ATK Natural & Hairy)are not as beautiful as they used to be? Am I jaded, a natural born whiner, or is there something to my observation?

In the Firefox I downloaded for Windows 8.1 "block pop-ups" was set as the default. I started doing some house cleaning by removing all extraneous stuff that came with my HP desktop. Maybe that will help!

Help! Adult Friend Finder is, all of a sudden, following me from site to site! Even this one! I scanned my computer just a couple of minutes ago and it didn't find any little bots that could give me a hard time. How did I acquire this site? I've never gone there .. ever.

I also don't really understand why HP does all this crap to their computers. I also got an HP laptop and it came loaded with a bunch of worthless programs that just generated popups and demands for updates. If you're completely clueless about computers this software might have some value but if you're just trying to get stuff done with real software then it's pointless. Like Exotics I just deleted the HP stuff or permanently shut it down and made my life easier.


I agree. At the moment I am in the process of removing all unnecessary HP programs and trial ware!

This is not an unconditional recommendation - you can try it out and see if you are okay with it. Freeware with begging.


I used "noscript" in my previous computer, JB, but could not get myself to like it. It limited the enjoyment of my browsing too much.

You can upgrade to Windows 8.1 for free and boot directly to the Desktop bypassing the start menu screen entirely if it bothers you.


How do you boot directly to the Desk top? I do have Windows 8.1, it came pre-installed. Thanks. I have another question directed to you and other knowledgeable PUs: Is "Windows Defender" sufficient when it comes to protection or should I download AVG (or Norton etc.) again.

Really, I'm being a bit hard on it. It is fast though I hate the "apps".

On the ads, I really don't know off the top of my head. I had a lot of HP pop-up crap when I first got it, so I just removed all the HP software from the hard drive and fixed that, but I then started getting more pop-ups that included surveys. Found that problem was caused by a software called "Relevant Knowledge". Which I guess came installed on my laptop. Have you downloaded anything from CNet downloads? I download a lot of software from them and they've for whatever reason (money), decided to put extra software in the package you download and are using porn site level trickery to get you to install those other software programs.

For example, I downloaded a music editing software from CNet, it came with an installer. When I opened it, it said, Basic installation (recommended)
Custom intallation

I clicked custom which let me deselect a box that said, "Allow toolbar and search to be changed" or something like that. So I got around step one of the trickery. Then step 2 popped up, "Would you like to install something something candy". This is where the frustration came in. At the bottom, the only choices are "Accept" and "Decline". Traditionally when you click decline when setting up a new software it means you don't want the software and installation stops. In this case, clicking decline just meant I didn't want this advertised software and let me move on to step 3 which was once again an offer of another software. I believe I had to click decline 4 times before it finally installed the software I had downloaded.

I mention this possibility since you got a new computer and I know when I get a new computer, I have to start putting media players, music editors and so on, on it and thought maybe they had tricked you. I wouldn't think that if it hadn't happened to me 2 times.

I ran malewarebytes (free) and it found several "pup" software programs. Once those were removed the ads stopped. Though it also could be something the maker of the computer put on it at the factory. Check your control panel and see if anything possibly unwanted is installed.


Thanks, exotics. I uninstalled most HP (not needed) software and am getting far fewer pop-ups. I am going to check to see how many more programmes I can find that might contribute to the problem. I have Windows 8.1. It came pre-installed. What a learning curve if you don't believe in reading owners' manuals. There is nothing intuitive about this OS!!

I know you and I feel differently when it comes to this subject, Cap'n, but here again is the reason why it is such a big deal to me:

"There goes the illusion of an amateur housewife doing something shocking on a temporary basis. Now she is a paid pro."

It's my fault, I shouldn't get carried away with illusions when it comes to soft porn.

Believe me, I did NOT want Windows 8 but that's all they had in the store. I don't know if it's a new Windows default or not but I am really being bombarded by ads ... and by reputable companies (Amazon etc.) too. It seems that all of them not only by-pass Firefox' attempts to control them but they even pop up on my desk top if it is idle for a few moments. I have tried to find something under the Windows 8 defaults but haven't found it yet. Oh, well, they seem harmless enough, just a nuisance.

Yes... what you're saying will get to you! especially those of us who are so drawn to the strikingly rare innocence of a young beginner whom we've been privy only to viewing skin reaching the boundaries of the taboo, flaunting those stunning features in erotic actions and the kind of creative attire that keeps us begging for more.

we follow her as she gathers more and more attention before many of her fans are making waves of bolder substance that's washing up on the decks of the studio paying her bills.
We'll never know the immense pressure put on these girls to give in ...... even if her private part's exposure is slow and only progressively spoon-fed to us in small increments, the finality is inevitable and only a question of time ....... and as jberry put it, (only in his unique way) It's all in following the money.


Afraid both you and JB are right, graymane. The majority of Porn Users seem to like the progression from soft to hard otherwise all my favorite models wouldn't choose that path. Follow the money is exactly what it's all about.

... in a solo model from relative innocence to prostitute. I know that there are many people who like to see their model get progressively bolder and "harder" but, for me, it is a real turn off to see a favorite going from showing a bit of pink to a blow job. The latest one is Sally T. (All Over 30)

I honestly can no longer enjoy her previous sets knowing that she ends up doing hardcore. There goes the illusion of an amateur housewife doing something shocking on a temporary basis. Now she is a paid pro.

Don't mind me and don't bother answering .. I know I've voiced this complaint before but SALLY T??? It was bad enough to see Annabelle Brady turn pro.

You are trying to sell something to someone who is not interested in paying no matter what. The people who pay for porn don't need to see half a movie to know if the quality is good, I think snippets from different sections would work just fine.

There is no need to give away more content to try to lure people who like free content. They just don't believe they should pay and that won't change.

Looks just about right, Rick. Half a movie would be enough to give us a good idea as to quality. I would suggest that the half always start from the beginning because I like to see the leading up to the action and how much of that is in the movie. If they jump right into the action I usually don't bother with the video.

Same as to the galleries. To me 10 free full size images would be enough but please don't let the advertised site start in the middle or toward the end. To me it is important to see how much and what the model is wearing at the very beginning of a set.

Personal preference only!

I would love to see the statistics as to their user base before the switch and after, Cap'n. It must have looked to them, maybe by measuring downloads, maybe by the enthusiastic approval and pressure tactics of "hairy-all-over" fans, that the switch would gain them more customers if they made the site a true fetish site. That's why I am torn about which of my two theories is the right one.

I only had two explanations as to why ATK's other sites are still $ 29.95:

One) The site is so popular since they made "extreme hairy" their policy they can afford to raise their price, or

Two) The site lost so many subscribers since they switched to "extreme hairy" that they had to up their prices to make any sort of a profit.

As someone who dislikes thick, coarse stubble on a woman's legs I hope it was the latter and that they will eventually switch back to a more moderate way of presenting natural women.

Both "We Are Hairy" and ATK's "Natural And Hairy" have gone from $29.95 to $34.95 during the past couple of months. Possibly because it is getting harder to find hairy models these days.

Here's a site with a little more explanation. Your best bet will be to find out exactly what video card your computer currently has and the maximum resolution that it will display. In theory you would be able to display a lower resolution on a bigger display (if your video card can't handle its max resolution) but it would start to look shitty--essentially a "zoomed in" look where everything is bigger because of the bigger display space.


Thanks, turbo! I think my question might be solved some other way since the graphics are starting to act up on my present computer and I have never liked just having a graphics chip because I can't play most of the newer games with it, so sometime soon I am going to get me a power computer with a sizzling graphics card! I miss gaming!

Sorry, Micha, just came across your reply. And you are right, of course, I was thinking of watching pictures on my computer but not at web sites where you indeed have to scroll quite often. Must try the viewer that comes with Windows 7, it never occured to me to use that one because I am so used to Irfanview and ACDsee before that.

Just a short and possibly dumb question. I am tempted to buy a bigger monitor but have a low power computer with a built-in Intel Graphics chip. So the question is, do you need computer power (better graphics chip or card) for a larger monitor or does it come with the monitor?

I agree that most porn lovers most likely are male, wittyguy, but I truly don't remember that any female that dared put her head in this forum was ever harassed in any way. I think most of them were treated the same as all the other members, that is with respect and courtesy (forgetting about a couple that got kicked out by Khan for being trolls).

Thank you, Pat! Happy New Year to you and to our faithful porn users and staff! And I agree with your sentiments re. 2013's porn. It was a bad year, the industry was imitative and had run out of ideas. May cookie cutter porn be a thing of the past in 2014 (fat chance)!

I use Irfanview myself and am quite happy with it. And as Pinkerton wrote, it's free!

I guess nobody wants to confess to an Oedipus complex, js.
Don't give up on posting, though. The folks will be more receptive to other subjects.

Cap'n.


As usual, I'm with you, Cap'n!

BTW, Idiosyncratic, I know, but I really enjoy pictures where the model is standing, full frontal going from fully dressed to fully nude. Edited on Dec 15, 2013, 03:54pm

The same is true for pavement-heard in the South but not used by speakers of Standard American English. Americans drive on the road. Americans outside the South say sidewalk.

I also agree about the wrong word order that you hear on TV. The most common mistake is that time ideas MUST go either first or last. Frequently I hear time ideas in midsentence, which sounds very strange. For example, I will go tomorrow to the store. Another awkward construction that is very common is the order of direct and indirect objects. An example is give me it (wrong) and give it to me (correct).

Don't get me started on "alleged suspect" or "take a listen".


Thank you, MBaya, for giving me such a concise and helpful answer! Now I must go because another good book is waiting on me! Just joking, no arrogance intended!

Relax,my brother,you are forgiven!

A small correction: in Canada we drive in the street on the pavement, if it is paved!

It's not a Americanism; it shows up in a British (Oxford) dictionary as such an alternative.

If you look around the web, you'll find other examples. Prepositions can be slippery little devils. Anyway, "on" works as well as "for" so long as the context makes the meaning clear.

I'm more appalled by talking heads on TV using the wrong word order in embedded questions, and using empty "happy talk" phrases like "moving forward" and "on the ground." (I doubt that anyone's going to advocate moving backward, and most things happen on the ground anyway, thanks to gravitational force.)

Anyway, Messmer, I hope I'm not reading any Canadian arrogance into this. I've got some experience with that.


Oh,Drooler, absolutely no arrogance behind this question. The only thing we are arrogant about is our universal health care system. I had truly never heard of "waiting on someone" in the sense of waiting for someone before, even when singing about waiting on The Lord my mind always took it to mean serving The Lord, so it was natural to wonder if it was an Americanism, without any slight intended. And I hate to think that any Canadians acted in arrogance toward you. My apologies on their behalf! Edited on Dec 14, 2013, 08:15pm

Hi graymane, in Nova Scotia it is always basement.

New question.

Do you prefer super model looks in the girls on websites, be it softcore, hardcore or whatever? Or do you prefer more 'real' looking girls, such as the girl next door type, with their flaws, imperfections, etc?


The real looking ones, please. Flaws and all. The glamor types do not interest me.

As an example, one of the coming changes that represents this type of trend is the rule of using "an" preceding a word that begins with a vowel rather than "a" (when a/an is the appropriate word to use in the sentence). It apparently is so misused that the grammar police are changing the rule.


I was thinking that "waiting on one's boyfriend to show up" might be a Southern idiom but can't be sure until someone responds to the question. And yes I have noticed (being a Wheel of Fortune watcher) that many folks ask for a "a" or a "e" etc. rather than for an "a," an "e" etc.

There are a lot of differences between the opposite sides of the Atlantic. I've noticed that American's tend to say "write" instead of "write to" eg "Don't forget to write me" vs. "Don't forget to write to me."

The word pavement always makes me chuckle as it's meaning is almost opposite. British people drive on the road and walk on the pavement. American's drive on the pavement.


That's what we say in Canada as well, Ed. We wait FOR someone. If it had only been one author I would have said it was a grammatical mistake. But FIVE (yes I came across another one last night)? And in Canada we walk on the sidewalk and drive on the pavement like the Americans.

As you know, I've gone back to reading books big time. At least four different American authors tend to write something like this: "she spent over an hour waiting on her husband to show up!" I have never heard of anyone waiting ON someone unless it was a waiter/waitress? Is this common usage in the U.S. of A.? Thanks!

Too late, rear admiral, I've been holding Tanner's sobbing body all night. It's way past my bedtime but feel that someone has to console the poor devasted girl. Rayveness has been shooting jealous daggers in our direction but what can one do?
